This has worked well for me too, for many years now!

There will be a good few onion days with this haul!

Nothing specific, we use onions in so many things! Will chop and freeze the bulk of them.

All I can remember is they were supposed to be red shallots. But ended up with giant white onions by mistake!

Thanks! I’m pleased with them, good and strong!

I’m not really sure of the ‘correct’ way, but I pull them when they are almost popping out of the ground and look good enough to use. Not very scientific, I know.

These onions had more growing to do, accidentally bought giant sets! But it was getting tight in my raised bed.

I bet they’ll taste great!

How did you guess?

Look you’ve been shot down so many times by so many people, but ‘they’re all wrong and I’m right’ is your take away?

I’m beginning to think troll rather than misguided.

I’ll say it loud so those at the back can hear too:

YOU CAN’T FIGHT RACISM WITH MORE RACISM!

It really is quite simple.

Blocking you seems like the best idea in this thread so far.

Absolutely we all have blind spots, I just think OP’s blind spot is addressing ‘white people’ like none of us live with, and around many cultures, not just races.

If someone were to address my local Polish or Bangladeshi or Muslim or whatever community the same way OP is addressing ‘white people’ in this post I would call it borderline racist and in fact it would fit in OP’s original ‘don’t do’ list.

I appreciate it probably comes from good intentions, but generalizing how entire groups of people should change to suit another group of people is a slippery slope.

No, but the things they are saying, maybe inadvertently, are starting to seem that way.

Swap ‘black’ and ‘white’ in their do not do list. Does it sound racist now?

As you say, all racism isn’t obvious. A quick look at their post history shows 7 or 8 race related posts recently.

Repeatedly stating white people should do or not do specific things.

This seems to me like the definition of racism at it’s roots.

Yep they were from a multi-colour pack. Glad it’s not just me then!

Might try to find just purples next year.

There’s currently only 1 user that I’ve noticed that keeps bringing race up.

I also use SuperSlicer and find this issue problematic too!

Hoping someone has a suggestion.

My main need of a separate POE is more logistical than networking, it’s convenient to power a couple of cameras from a distant switch.

I think if I started over the only things I’d alter would be the number of ports on the main switch. 16 ports at least. I’ve used all 8 and still have things I would use more for.

Here’s a physical diagram (not all clients are shown) that may help some more:

Yep, it’s not as overkill as it first seems.

One managed handles all the VLAN designations and most of the heavy lifting of the network,

One is just a virtual switch in my Proxmox server dealing with the virtual machines and containers.

And then a physical VLAN aware switch at each end of the house for all client devices on multiple VLANS, ie CCTV (no internet), Media VMs on VPN only VLAN, PC, laptop, phones etc on their own, and a management VLAN.

Here’s my network as an example:
